Elisabeth DeLuca, a nurse who graduated from UConn’s nursing program in 1969 and former wife of Subway’s founder, announced the donation during the school’s groundbreaking, according to an Oct. 30 news release from the university. Her gift will support various aspects of the school, with $20 million allocated for construction costs, $5 million for equipment, and the remaining funds directed toward student scholarships and program support.
